September 29 - October 01, 2014, GöttingenAim of the MA|AM course is to improve the knowledge for the practical application of microphone array measurements in wind tunnels, including the post-processing and the interpretation of the achieved results. Test engineers can participate to obtain the necessary knowledge to improve the quality of aeroacoustic measurements with microphone arrays and prevent costly errors. Contractors and end-users of array measurement results will learn how to assess the potential of aeroacoustic wind tunnel measurements and how to interpret the achieved results appropriately.

The AIAA/CEAS Aeroacoustics Conference has established itself as the premier international forum for the field of aeroacoustics. It offers scientists and engineers from industry, government, and universities an exceptional opportunity to exchange knowledge and results of current studies and to discuss directions for future research. Papers that address all aspects of the generation, propagation, and control of vehicle noise, as well as the effect of noise on structures and individuals, are being solicited. The program's technical content will include theoretical, numerical and experimental contributions that describe original research results and/or innovative design concepts.

Workshop - June 12, 2013, BremenThe EU project DESIREH (Design, Simulation and Flight Reynolds Number Testing for Advanced High Lift Solutions) supports the realisation of the ACARE Vision 2020 for significantly greener aircraft and a reduced time to market by improving the aerodynamics of the high-lift system. This is achieved by considering - at the same time and in a coordinated approach - the numerical design methodology and the measurement techniques for cryogenic conditions for an advanced laminar wing. The aim is to facilitate an improved industrial design process in terms of product quality, efficiency, and development cost reduction with respect to the high-lift systems.

September 7 - 11, 2015, GöttingenFor investigations of pressure distributions on wind tunnel model surfaces with high spatial resolution new experimental techniques, such as Pressure Sensitive Paint (PSP) are required. Using this non- intrusive optical pressure measurement technique, spatial structures and/or rapid temporal or spatial changes of aerodynamic phenomena (transition from laminar to turbulent flow, coherent structures, pitching airfoils in transonic flows with shocks, rotors, test facilities with short run time and different flow temperature etc.) can be investigated. The PSP technique has also expanded from the measurement of steady state pressures to include both periodic and unsteady phenomena to study the instantaneous structure of pressure fields in various areas of fluid mechanics.

March 23 - 27, 2015, GöttingenThe main interest of todays research in fluid mechanics is more and more directed to problems where unsteady and separated flows are predominant. For investigations of flow fields with pronounced spatial structures and/or rapid temporal or spatial changes (transition from laminar to turbulent flow, coherent structures, pitching airfoils in transonic flows with shocks, rotors, test facilities with short run time, etc.) new experimental techniques, such as Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) are required which allow to capture the flow velocity of large flow fields instantaneously.

25. October 2012The development of aircraft and other technical products is increasingly based on numerical simulations, demanding for safe estimates of the accuracy of the results. In particular the uncertainties on the simulated conditions and geometries need to be addressed, in order to obtain an optimum design that is robust against such uncertainties.

October 17-19, 2011 DLR BraunschweigThe TAU User Meeting is intended to give TAU users in academia and industry the opportunity to demonstrate their applications, share their experiences and discuss their needs with specialists. TAU Short Courses are offered additionally covering topics of interest.
